which is correct or would someone kindly direct me to a good video for learning if possible.with gasshorory

Namu Kanzeon Bosatsu Chih-I:The Tai-ching states "the women in the realms of Mara, Sakra and Brahma all neither abandoned ( their old) bodies nor received (new) bodies. They all received buddhahood with their current bodies (genshin)" Thus these verses state that the dharma nature is like a great ocean. No right or wrong is preached (within it) Ordinary people and sages are equal, without superiority or inferiority Paul, Groner "The Lotus Sutra in Japanese Culture"eds.

Just to answer real quick about the Imee Ooi version: it's actually the "Ekadashamukha Dharani" (The Dharani of 11-faced Avalokitesvara).The version we do at the Vietnamese temple is very similar to the one at the end of that thread from devoid, with some slight stylistic differences.

Now I'm confused. ( I know the Ekadasa Mukhi Dharani and that's not the recording I posted) gasshorory

Sorry, I should've watched your video to see what you actually posted, I just saw Imee Ooi and assumed it was the 11 faced version.

Wiki refers to the first one in your last post as "Sanskrit Version" and sources it to:Nīlakantha Dhāranī from STP (5.1290-6.1304) by Chih-t'ung (worked 627-649), Ming edition of the Chinese Tripitaka. (Lokesh Chandra, Sanskrit Texts from the Imperial Palace at Peking [STP] Parts 1-22, New Delhi 1968-1977, International Academy of Indian Culture)They discuss the differences of this version here in this document from Lokesh Chandra:http://web.archive.org/web/200703160034 ... _01_01.pdfBasically boils down to a difference between Chih-t'ung and Amoghavajra.

I misspoke before, the one I recognize is the 2nd one in your last post; ie the Amoghavajra one.
